As a nature lover, it’s no surprise that I loved this place so much. Unfortunately, they’re relocating, so I could only enjoy the boat ride since some of the activities had already closed down. 😔

A nice experience ! People were nice to me. I went on the lac and move around the bird island on canoe. I have seen birds on trees, monkey was a little bit shy ahah. Prices are good also. Thank you !

I went to visit the botanical garden on a weekday while on vacation in Ghana. The entrance fee was 20 cedis and additional 30 cedis for the canopy walkway and 20 cedis for the boat ride. The garden itself was full with lots of students and people, I loved the ambience for the greenery and quiet, it was very natural with lots of birds and fresh air. Exactly how a botanical garden should be. The canopy walkway was a scary and exciting experience for me but I was happy noticing how secure and sturdy the walkway was. There’s a minimum notice for 6 persons at a time, I only went with 2 other people. I had a great time there, even went on the boat ride with the life jackets on, the white birds were so beautiful, unfortunately my phone died and I couldn’t take more videos and picture. I’d highly recommend it for any tourist visiting Accra that loves nature and some quiet.

One of the best places to hangout with friends, and quite an ideal place to go solo especially if you want a quiet place to relax your weary head. The views and scenery are amazing, where you get to enjoy nature within the city. The place is big to walk around and have a number of benches scattered all over to sit and enjoy your time. The place is neat and well managed. You'll have the opportunity to try out some exciting events like the canopy walk and high ropes (my favourite; you'll love it). The kids are equally taken care of with an eventful playground. This was my first visit and the memories are priceless. It's a place I'll love to go more often.

The garden is naturally beautiful in its nature with a couple of fun activities like the canopy walkway and high ropes. In my opinion, I don’t think the high ropes area is supposed to be a smoke free area as it is mostly occupied by teens. Also, the security at the children’s playground boldly tells you that you don’t have to be there if you don’t have kids. Some people just love to be around children and this could be a way of shying tourists away. If it’s for security reasons, it doesn’t mean people with kids cannot harm as well. It’s generally a nice place, I had loads of fun regardless.
